Customer Reviews

Disappointing
I had purchased this sterilizer based on a recommendation from a friend. After just a few uses, the steamer stopped working. When the lever to turn the steamer on was pushed, it just wouldn't turn on any more. I contacted the First Years manufacturer, and to say the least, they did have excellent customer service. They had no problem replacing the unit. Upon receiving the second unit, I used the steamer once. And because the steamer couldn't hold every thing on the first run I had to run it twice in a row. To my disappointment, I pressed the lever and again it did not work. Frustratingly, I pushed the lever several times and then the light finally came on. Unless you cool it for about a half hour or more, this is how my unit operated. I'm sure that not every one's experience is the same but this was how mine was. I definitely would caution buyers on the product - only because this problem occured twice with the units that I have used.
Junk
We too had problems with turning the sterilizer on. The unit would not turn on when the lever was pressed, but several presses got it to work a couple of times. After about 6 uses it died completely. Not sure what the hard part about making a hotplate that is switched on by depressing a lever (like an electric kettle) is exactly, but these guys found it.

This unit also left a LOT of condensation in the stuff we sterilized.
Worked great at first...
I bought this right before my daughter was born and have used it every day since she was born 4 months ago. A week ago it just stopped working. I really liked this steamer and it had served me well but now was just not turning on anymore. So I went out and bought the exact same steamer. I used it for 2 days and then on the third day, yesterday, it wouldn't turn on anymore. I'm taking it back today and getting something else.
